But there's a problem here and I don't know how to fix it... I use the xml 
archive format and tried to define operators << and >> (non-intrusively) and 
saving the archive for my juce::String works fine, however, loading doesn't 
work. Say that the tag looks like this in my saved xml file:

<MyTestValue>Yo, this is the test value!</MyTestValue>

When loading it, my variable gets the value "Yo, this is the test 
value!</MyTestValue>" instead of the value between start and end tag, and the 
whole load process then crashes of course.

How is the std::string/std::wstring handled since they obviously are 
saved/loaded correctly?
